The story goes that Incredible String Band co-founder Robin Williamson refused to participate in the band's 2009 retrospective at London's Barbican because he doesn't like looking back.
Which is ironic, because this exotic folk performance from Williamson and his wife (and long-term collaborator) Bina looked into the past, and then some, to Williamson's God-fearing Irish ancestors, bluesy 1920s jaunts (Cocaine Killed My Honey Dead) and 1940s Hindi film songs, Paraguayan train songs and Punjabi wedding songs, all keenly sung by Bina.
